 note = {Today, there are countless online tools to improve English proficiency and fluency.
The proliferation of these resources has grown exponentially in the last 25 years or
so and they have undoubtedly become leading instruments in current ELT practice.
However, this tremendous expansion has also led to difficulty in discerning which
tools may best serve ELT goals. This article will attempt to catalogue and evaluate
the utility, of a small handful of sites that include: YouTube; TED and TED-Ed;
BBC Learning English; CNN Student News; Netflix and Hulu; English Central
and Speechyard; and VoiceTube. While this is not an exhaustive list of online video
platforms, these sites are key players in relation to ELT and were therefore chosen
for this report. A review and critique of these sites is provided based on their value in
regards to two specific study methods: Extensive Watching (EW) and a more focused
and blended watch-study-watch-repeat method. Furthermore, considerations are
made about how these resources can benefit ELF classrooms and how well they fulfill
the tenets of good ELF practices.},
